Cool Video: “Ghostbusters – The Video Game” trailer is here!!!

Atari is releasing “Ghostbusters – The Video Game” and they already released the trailer!!! The game is coming out in June of 2009 for all video game systems. The trailer has the actual voice overs of Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis and Ernie Hudson.

Lets just hope that the game has a lot more action more than the storyline cut scenes. Lets also hope that the game will be difficult and challenging.

I’m so am looking forward to this game. I’m definitely picking it up for the PS3 when it comes out.

See the trailer here:

I look forward to anything Burton and Depp do together. I will see “Alice In Wonderland” in theater and I will see “Dark Shadows” in theater as well.

“Dark Shadows” also happens to be an all time favorite TV show of mine. I used to watch it all the time on the Sci-Fi channel.

Whose Side Are You On: The Student or the Bus Driver…

Watch this video. It’s been posted in youtube, hidden camera footage of a teenage high school girl fighting with the bus driver. Bus driver stops the bus, noticing this girl talking on the cell phone. Driver asked her why she is talking on the cell when cell phones are probably not allowed in school, that girl is the only one on the bus talking on the cell phone by the way. The girl wouldn’t stop talking on the cell phone but the bus driver kept harrasing her. The girl tried to get off the bus but the bus driver wouldn’t let her get off.

The bus driver tried to get her to sit down, the girl yells, “Stop touching my boob, you pervert”. From what I’ve seen on the video, the bus driver didn’t touch her boob, she was just trying to get the girl to sit down. The stupid girl is trying to make the driver look like a pervert in front of the other students.

The girl tried to get the driver to talk to her mom on the cell phone, but it looks to me that the driver chucked her cell phone out the window. Driver called the police, so she continues to fight with the girl as the police are on their way. Toward the end of the video, the other students start to get pissed for getting stuck on the bus witnessing the fight.

At the end of the video, it looks like the girl couldn’t take it anymore which looks like two young girls are trying to push the driver away from the door so they can get out. When the police finally arrived, the cops let the students off the bus.

Whose side am I on? The bus drivers. Yep, I said it. The bus driver was just doing her job. The little girl was just being a spoiled little bitch. Not following orders like all students are supposed to do, so I can’t blame the bus driver for acting this way. The reason the bus driver wouldn’t let her off the bus ’cause it’s their job. They aren’t supposed to let students off the bus ’cause it would get the parents worried and the school could get sued.

It seems that the other students were on the driver’s side too ’cause a few of them came over to her and asked the driver if she was okay at the end. Bus driver was doing the right thing. From what I’ve seen in the news report, the girl’s been charged, not the driver. Sounds just right to me.

I’m a little late on this news but I just came across it in youtube today. Thought it was pretty interesting so I had to post it.

Brock’s Top 5 Worst Films of 2008!!!

Here are my top 5 choices for worst films of this year…films I didn’t like…

1. Burn After Reading

This was the biggest piece of crap I’ve seen all year long. The Coen Bros. worst film ever made. Were they trippin’ on drugs when they made this? They made Brad Pitt and George Clooney look like sissies in this flick.

2. Wanted

A favorite actress of mine who starred in  one of her worst films ever made. I never liked this film at all. While the movie is action packed, too much CGI that the film almost looked cartoonish to me. Don’t waste your time on it.

3. Vantage Point

A film I thought would be very promising and very good, but I wasn’t impressed with this film. It was boring. Only good thing about it was Dennis Quaid’s acting but the rest of the movie itself wasn’t very good. I didn’ t like how the script was written.

4. The Forbidden Kingdom

Action flick that stars Jet Li and Jackie Chan. Thought the film would be fun and action packed but it wasn’t. It was more about the storytelling with only very few action scenes. Giving this film a thumbs down.

5. 10,000 B.C.

I thought this film was ok, but nothing special or amazing, it’s definitely a wait for DVD type of thing. Not seeing in the theater. Again, I thought this film would be pretty promising by seeing the trailers and stuff, but when I saw this film in theater, I wasn’t that impressed. The film kind of bored me.

There’s my list. Enjoy.

Brock’s Top 5 Best Films of 2008!!!

Well, it is the last month of the year 2008 already. Do you know what that means? This means, it is time to pick my top 5 best and worst films of 2008!!! I’ve seen a lot of movies this year that came out in 2008 so I wanted to tell you what I liked and didn’t like. Today I will start off with my top 5 choices for best films. I will talk about them in order:

Brock’s Top 5 Best Movies of 2008:

1. The Dark Knight

The best film of the year, I would say. This movie is a masterpiece. Not just for Heath’s acting as the Joker which is also amazing, I just love the entire movie overall. I am out of my mind how well Christopher Nolan saved the Batman franchise. Thank you Chris, Thank you!!!!

2. Rambo

This movie got mixed reviews by critics and regular fans, but I don’t care what anyone else says, I judge movies by my own opinion alone. I thought this film was a masterpiece too. It’s the way action movies are supposed to be today. Sly knows how an action movie is supposed to work and he did a great job with Rambo. It also tells a powerful story about Burma. Sly is a great film maker. I love this film to death.

3. Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

Again, this film got mixed reviews by critics and regular fans, this another movie you either love or hate, but oh well, I LOVED IT!! I thought Indy 4 was amazing. People don’t like the sci fi mixed in with aliens, but people just don’t understand that Spielberg is always putting aliens in pretty much everyone of his movies. Spielberg always had a fascination with UFO’s and aliens. He wanted to mix that in with Indy which makes it an original story and different. This film is extremely entertaining and the storytelling is just fantastic. Sure, some of the movie is silly and didn’t make any sense, but hey, it’s just a movie right? If you don’t take it seriously, you would enjoy it and have fun. 🙂

4. Changeling

Clint Eastwood is back with another film that stars my favorite actress Angelina Jolie which she plays a troubled single mother trying to find her missing son. This film makes the top 5 indeed. It’s a wonderful movie and as usual Angelina’s acting is always amazing when she does the serious drama stuff.

5. The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

The Chronicles of Narnia films keep getting better and better. “Prince Caspian” is just absolutely mind blowing and this film is a masterpiece as well. The violence and action in this flick is actually pretty intense. The story itself is actually very good and cast does a good acting job.

Enjoy the list. “Iron Man” is good but not good enough to make my top 5 so don’t complain to me that it didn’t make it up there. I will have the 5 Worst Films of 2008 up tomorrow.

Report: The Juice will spend his Holidays behind bars!!!

This coming Friday will be a big day for the Juice!!! That day he will be sentenced to prison!!! Simpson’s journey to fame, fortune and criminal life ends here and now. The Juice will spend a minimum of six years in prison and could be held for life if the judge imposes maximum penalties or decides to run the sentences consecutively.

Yale Galanter who is Simpson’s attorney claims that the Judge is only punishing him for the murders of Nicole and Ron. He said, he and OJ will continue to fight for the Juice’s freedom. Is OJ angry and upset going to prison? According to this article, no, he isn’t at all. The Juice is very upbeat and in a positive mood about going to prison. In fact, the article says he is very excited about it, getting ready to fight for an appeal.

The Associated Press reports:

Fleetwood Mac is returning to the road in the Spring of ’09. For now the band has dates that run through March, but they are expected to book more dates throughout the entire summer as well. This is considered a Greatest Hits tour called, the “Unleashed” tour. Lindsey Buckingham, Stevie Nicks and the rest of the gang will come to the Capital District in Albany, N.Y. on March 17th at the Times Union Center.

See the article here at Billboard for the tour listing:

I am a fan of Fleetwood Mac but I wouldn’t see them live though, tickets would probably be pretty pricey. I don’t go to national concerts anymore anyways.

Hmmmm, Mike Patton scoring for an action flick, interesting. I’m sure he’ll capture the music perfectly for the film. And it’s good to see Corey Haim coming back to the big screen finally.

I have never even seen the first “Crank” film yet.
